November 10, 2025: Exploring Waymap – Navigation Without Limits
Join us on Monday, November 10, at 7:00 p.m. for our next ACBVA program featuring Waymap, an innovative navigation app that helps users travel independently — indoors, outdoors, and even underground — without relying on GPS or external signals!
Founded in 2017 by Dr. Tom Pey, Waymap began as his vision to make navigation truly accessible. After losing his sight at 39, Dr. Pey — a former investment banker, professional dancer, and CEO of the Royal Society for Blind Children — teamed up with world-class mathematicians and technologists to develop what’s now called a “Smart Step System.” Today, Waymap is already in use throughout the WMATA transit system in the Washington, D.C. area.
We’re honored to welcome Dr. Pey and members of the Waymap team as our guest speakers!
